This shouldn’t be news to anyone...statistically speaking, many autistic people don’t grow up to live happy lives.
We face higher rates of unemployment, isolation, abuse, health issues...you get the idea.
My personal brand of “tragedy” comes with a feeling I can only describe as whiplash because at the age of mostly 28, I’ve achieved things many people only dream of. I’m a published author, international speaker, and I was even on Netflix.
Sure, in the way that matters to human minds, I’m ahead. But in the way that matters human hearts, I feel like I’ve been left behind.
It’s nothing short of disorienting to feel so needed during business hours but so unnecessary on nights, weekends, and holidays.
In my advocacy work, I describe my communication abilities as the exception, not the rule because I refuse allow my success to contribute to the erasing of those with more profound needs.
But when it comes to the kind of pervasive longing for connection- the sort that quietly echoes in everything you do—I’m not the exception at all.
I don’t want pity—I want unity. Authentic advocacy means we can celebrate our success and still being willing to confront the tough realities associated with autism.
The journey isn’t always clear, but every step forward—no matter how small—matters. ❤️🩹

They seldom take into account the realities of chronic conditions, disabilities, and their own in accessibility.
